I’ve gotten to the end of the “Things I know to try list” and my set-up is responding differently then the YouTube videos show. Everything seem to work in WSJT-X using flrig (same result when “connected” directly in WSJT-X) Test CAT turns green, Test PTT turn red and radio light turns red. The problem is when PTT is turns red, the G90 goes into transmit mode, but the power reading on the display is 0.0W and the ALC is at 100 and is not affected by any changes I’ve tried. My last hope is changing out the USB/USB-C cable which hopefully come in tomorrow. Any ideas on things I can try until then?
That sounds frustrating! If you want to try something while you wait, check WSJT-x File → Settings → Audio to make sure the audio devices are correct. If there is PTT but no power out, maybe there is no audio.
Also, I usually reseat all physical connections followed by restarting all software when things aren’t working.
It is indeed. I’m pretty sure I’ve tried every combination Audio. I’ve attached my current settings. Just let me know if something jumps out to you.
One other piece is I’m working with a very compromised antenna current. I’m trapped in an office until I can get a hole in this wall. So even though the antenna tunes it ain’t much. I wouldn’t think this would impact this part of the puzzle though.
Thank you for your help. I tried following that video (it’s where I got the USB mode from). I have since changed it to U-D and received a signal. I’ll try these setting for awhile.
I went ahead and got the digirig USB/USB-C cable because on other post it seems that was the problem. I’ll keep plugging away but think I might be getting closer.
Thanks again!
Yes it has been working well since things squared away. I had a cable issue and another issue with settings. I think I have a G90 document showing typical setting.
If the digirig was working with you G90 and now with new PC isn’t. Triple check all your sound settings on this computer.
Here’s the settings that I mentioned. And definitely take Denis’ advice, he helped me get up and running.
But I think you’re probably right, there’s probably a legacy audio device that you haven’t found the right Win11 driver for. Trying to hunt those down can be so frustrating. I’d find another laptop. That’s one reason I keep fighting myself not to update any computers that are playing nice with my radios.
Hang in there, you’ll be back on the air soon!
